Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

It's pretty simple. I don't feel ready.

If I don't feel ready it's because I'm not ready.

I want to build my confidence slowly and safely.

Not jeopardise everything in one hit because being pushed into something I am not ready for.

I can't be anymore clearer than that and will not be participating to this track day in June.

I will however be happy to spectate to see how it all unfolds

Give me time guys that is all

Fair enough Ants, happy laps first then?

Need to start thinking about a new turbo and not sure which route to take, thinking highflow or a bolt on. I want something that can make about 250 kw and decent response, anyone have any suggestions?

have a look at those precision turbos Mike.

They seem to spool up damn fast and will easily make 250+kw

Having said that I prefer bolt in applications

Yeah I'm after something bolt on.

6266's are 500+hp turbos though Tony. They spool quick... For their size. But it wouldn't be good to be making only 350hp with it. Not to mention it doesn't come on a t3 flange, so you'd need a new manifold.

I think Tony was taking the piss lol

I guess Hypergear is the easy bolt on option. Personally Id look at a 3071.

I haven't read much about Precision turbos and how they fair at the 250kw level. No doubt they make a good charger for the goal i just havent seen results for them

Grab a r34 turbo and get it highflowed at CGC, MTQ or hypergear. I had a friend that made a lazy 270rwkw and it still looked stock. Pretty inexpensive too.

Yes. Yes I was. :-D would be fun to see the silver broad minded person actually turn her wheels. :-P

Realistically for that power though, buying a high flowed turbo is probably your best bet. Cost is kept down and life is good.

^^ This, Highflow seems to get the best results these days whilst keeping it low mounted on the stock manifold and internally gated

This is what I'm leaning towards ATM, just need the 34 turbo.

    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
